Audi DTM driver Jamie Green will get his first taste of the Audi R8 LMS this season. The Briton will race with Belgian Audi Club Team WRT in three race weekends of the Blancpain GT Series at Misano, Silverstone and Spa. Green, who will be racing with the new Audi RS 5 DTM for Audi Sport Team Rosberg during 2017, is looking forward to the challenge: “I am always open for something new and I have never driven a GT car before. My premiere in a 24-hour race is also something that I am looking forward to. My first test with Belgian Audi Club Team WRT went very well. I can't wait to finally drive the Audi R8 LMS in a race. My focus does however remain on the DTM.”
